Message: <blockquote data-quote="iallaway" data-source="post: 2469443" data-attributes="member: 551510">Hello AllI have just been diagnosed with reactive Hypoglycemia and Pre diabetes.  I do not understand neither of the two stated.  I had my last tollerence test this week and showed by sugar dropped to 2.2.  Now consultant sent me letter and said I have a impaired glucose  tolerance (pre-diabetes) Whatever that means.  I passed out in hospital with the 2.2 but after eating mars bar, biscuits, sandwich and 2 cups of sweet teas I was then ok.  The letter states I need to keep away from sugar and replace it with Glucose, sucrose, fructose and dextrose.  I do eat maybe not that great as i am a lorry driver (No fast food dinning) I have sandwich cake etc.  If I dont have sugary stuff then my sugar drops dangerously low all the time.  I self buy libre2 and just bought Dexcom G6 to try.  Im not too sure what Im trying to ask but I hope someone can help.  I can attach the letter to this if anyone wants to see it. My Doctor has given me Glucogel and a monitor to fingerprick myself.  Because I drive a lorry, by law from DVLA I need to keep my sugar above 5.0 Sorry for the stupid post.Thank youIan</blockquote>
